Dennis Charles Sievers was born in Howard, SD, to Jake and Pauline (King) Sievers on October 25, 1939. He graduated from Howard High School and enlisted in the Navy and served for four years.
Dennis was united in marriage with Elsa Mitrevics and had two sons, Leon (Laura) of Carlsbad, CA, and Scott (Dee) of Sioux Falls, SD. He joined the Sioux Falls Police Department and retired from there after 32 years of service.

He had 6 grandchildren, Katie Sievers, Heather Campbell, Holly Waterman, Justin Riddle, Jeff Riddle, Celeste Sievers; and 8 great-grandchildren.
An avid hunter and fisherman when he wasn't staying busy working, you could find him fishing at his place in Chamberlain or hunting with his brothers in the fields or plains of South Dakota. He enjoyed working with his hands and would make some beautiful canes and walking sticks.

Survivors include his loving wife, Myrna, brother Dewayne (Mary Ann) Sievers of Howard, brother Doug (Mary) Sievers of Eagle, WI, sister-in-law Sue Sievers, and aunt Lena Derchied of Watertown, SD, along with his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren that he loved to surround himself with.
